Enrollment jumps 13 percent
Cindy Brown
Foghorn Staff Writer
Enrollment has once again risen at
USF, with a 13 percent increase in thc
number of sludents on campus since
last fall.
In the Fall of 1991, there were 3511
students in the School of Arts and Sciences, McLaren School of Business,
and the School of Nursing. For thc Fall
1992 semester, the number of students
rose by 473 to 3984. Of the increased
number of spaces, according to B.J.
Johnson, diree tor of Registrar, approximately 200 were in the Arts Department, 100 in Sciences, 150 in Business,
and 70 in Nursing.
"This is one of the biggest enrollments the school has had in years, both
for new students and continuing students," Bill Henley,diree torof Admissions said.
In addition to the increase in the
number of students on campus, there
was also an increase in the the grade-
point average (GPA) and the SAT verbal score.
The comparison between 1991 and
1992 scores is based on the census
figures for 1991 and deposit figures for
1992, which comprises about 90 percent of the undergraduate population
on campus. Census information will
not be published until the second or
third week of October.
Average GPA at entrance to USF has
risen from 3.20 to 3.23 since 1991. The
average SAT verbal score of incoming
freshmen has risen one point, from 463
to464, and average SAT math score has
decreased fourpoints, from 515 in 1991
to 511 in 1992, to create a combined
average score of 975.
Thc increase in new students on campus is made up of 501 new freshmen
and 524 transfer students. Henley also
anticipates a flood of transfer students
in the Spring semester, following a trend
that has been developing for the past
several years.
